Lonely Sinking Feeling Lyrics - Lay It Down - Cowboy Junkies

She says, "I'm getting that lonely sinking feeling, 

you know what I mean?" 

With his hand on her back he's thinking, 

"Where does that leave me?" 

Just when I think I've uncovered the secret 

to peace and tranquility 

that lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me 

He says, "I'm seeing those doubt filled 

questioning eyes 

and I can't believe it's true" 

With her head in her hands she sighs, 

"It's me, not you"

Just when I thought that I'd discovered the joy 

of loving one so completely 

that lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me 

Here in this silent room we wait on ancient ritual 

Staring at our hearts 

as if they were two caged animals 

If I am the first to unlock those rusty doors 

will I be the first found bleeding on the floor? 

She says, "I'm getting that lonely sinking feeling, 

you know what I mean?" 

With his hand on her back he's thinking, 

"Where does that leave me?" 

Just when I think I've uncovered the secret 

to peace and tranquility 

that lonely sinking feeling creeps up on me
